New Mythic Valkyrie Class Feature: Mythic Rage Power (Selection)

To give this feature to every raging class.

This post already appeared for patrons only on my Patreon page. If you wish to see stuff in advance and have access to other rewards, please consider donating!


Valkyrie

Mythic Rage Power (Selection): Once per day as a full-round action, the valkyrie may change one rage power (but not a mythic rage power) she has selected. In essence, she loses one rage power, and gains a new rage power to replace it, as if she had retrained the class feature. She may not swap out any rage power she is using as a prerequisite.

This mythic class feature may be selected more than once, but not more times than the total number of rage powers the valkyrie has. Each time it is selected, it allows her to swap out a rage power one additional time per day. She may swap out the same rage power multiple times, or swap out different rage powers.

Cauliflower Pasta Soup

A delicious vegetable soup that puts you in contact with the plant world.

Servings: 4; Prep & Cooking Time: 1 hour

Duration: 6 hours

Magical Benefit: Eating a serving of cauliflower pasta soup grants a +1 bonus on Profession (herbalist) and Knowledge (nature) skill checks regarding plants, and on Diplomacy skill checks to modify the reactions of plant creatures. These bonuses increase by +1 for every 5 points by which the cook exceeds the Craft (culinary) check. The benefits last for 6 hours after consumption.

You also gain the mythic version of one rogue or slayer talent you possess.

You no longer need to spend skill leverage to gain the additional benefits of graceful conditioning or athletic body. Whenever you succeed at an Acrobatics, Climb, Fly, Ride, Stealth, or Swim check, you gain a morale bonus on Fortitude and Reflex saves equal to your mythic tier for 1d4 rounds.


Mythic Cleverness Method

You may expend one use of mythic power to fuel abilities that require inspiration without spending points of inspiration. Once per day you may expend 3 points from your inspiration pool as a free action to recover one use of mythic power. You also gain the mythic version of one investigator talent you possess.

If you are mythic tier 7 or higher, the animal companion also gains the mythic saves base mythic ability.

The GM has final discretion on what creatures make appropriate companions.

In addition, when you gain animal connections, you gain either the mythic wild empathy or the mythic improved empathic link ability of a mythic hunter.
